Hi all. i was just wondering if someone could make me a midi file with s fullness pattern (its usually in the first couple of beats before the kick starts, it includes snare hat etc). Ive been trying to make this for a few weeks now but i just cant get it right. A good exaple of what im talking about is from "lange vs gareth enery - another you another me (original mix). im talking about the beats that go up to and including the 45 sec.
Thanks in advance |

Vengeance samples huh, why don't you just use that? Change some frequencies so it sounds different or something, im sure you wanna learn how to do it as do I but I put it in FL and looked at the WAV and figured some crap out. I'm no expert but i thought i would give it a go.
I know i left some stuff out but try and listen to it at a low volume and mess around putting your samples over it to cover it up, you know like matching it. I'm pretty buzzed right now so i cant hear everything right but i hope this starts you out.

If your such an expert why not tell me all about it....
Oh and thanks heaps for the advice and midi gwrmarines although i was thinking more about the background noise like snare bongo and stuff like that. i know the basic patterns of the kick hats and clap but im missing the background sounds. my loops that i try to make just dont sound full. they sound verry empty |

He's right, just making a drum pattern with the MIDI notes isn't enough. Those VEC loops (the ones which aren't ripped from tracks) have tons of EQ, compression, and quite possibly a few other things like light distortion or tube effects, flangers, etc.
You simply won't get that kind of sound with a plain vanilla sequence of plain vanilla samples. |

It definitely has something to do with the velocity. Its hard to get a good groove if everything is at the same volume every time. Its the accents that make it groove. A little bit of shuffle helps too, makes it sound less robotic. |

u need a highpassed kick, a shaker, an opeh hihat, and a close hat. and something else im not catching atm, its some kind of effect i think on the first bar
and craploads of group compression and compressed reverb.
personally i think it sounds like crap. |
